[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She has now straight-out said it's an 'oops' baby. https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-moms/pictures/golden-globes-2023-claire-danes-says-pregnancy-was-not-intentional/[/quote] There you have it ladies - don't blow off birth control if you don't want a baby in your 40s![/quote] Oh, please. The data and science still shows likelihood of pregnancy is exceptionally low at 40. Whether she is telling the truth or not, I have no idea. Can women that are 42 get pregnant? Absolutely. Is it common? Absolutely not. I get that women don't like aging and, for some, fertility is interwoven with desirability/self worth. This thread seems to be in denial about age and fertility realities but we really need to let this go. It is ok to recognize that aging and being in your 40s means certain changes. Fertility is in decline and pregnancies are less likely. The fact that a celebrity is pregnant at 43 does not negate that fact.[/quote] No one in this thread, or anywhere, has claimed it’s easy for most women to get pregnant in their 40s. No one advises young women to postpone kids until their 40s. No one! You are angry about a thing that doesn’t exist.[/quote] You need to relax, lady. No one is angry. I am pointing out that this board is perpetually misleading and often misstates facts re fertility. There are dozens of anecdotal PPs above sharing how easy pregnancy is in 40s, which is purposefully misleading and doesn't reference context. My statements are on point. I think this issue usually gets PPs upset because DC metro swings older pregnancy.[b] I don't think that I've been any place that had as many advanced maternal age mothers as this area[/b], which is why everyone is so defensive - and wrongly insisting that pregnancy in 40s is FINE.[/quote] You've never been to any other major city? :lol: Pregnancy in the 40s is totally fine. WTAF? [/quote] It's really not. It's incredibly rare and incredibly dangerous to the mother and child. You're either trolling or some spinster in denial. It's also probably why so many of you on this forum worship Markle; holding out hope you bag a rich guy and pop out two kids. Sorry, life isn't a fairy tale.[/quote] It is absolutely fine to be pregnant in your 40s. Is Brunch Granny also one of the racist Markle haters? 😱 [/quote]
